SOME POINTS IN Gov GRAY'S MESSAGE.
Governor Gray's message contained some
recommendations which should receive care
full consideration at the hands of the General
Assembly. Chief among these are the follow
ing:
First, his recommendation for the establish
ment of an institution, to be called by some
some such name as an industrial school," for
the confinement of young convicts and of
mer character had been good, in order that
they might have chance to reform. The
name of the institution is immaterial-the
object to be accomplished is the main thing
The most advanced sentiment of the age
IS in favor of making the reformation of
criminals, especially of young criminals,
prime object in their punishment. All
prison reform movements are agreed on this
point. The mere imprisonment of criminals.
if they are to be turned loose at the end of
their terms, as bad or worse than ever. to
return to the paths Of crime, is a poor result
for modern civilization. There are old and
hardened criminals who are beyond the reach
of reform or of any lettering influence; but
for the large number of comparatively Young
men just entering on a career Of crime, surely
something can and should be done better than
combining them with old and hardened Grim
inals, to be released at the end of their terms
with stronger impulse to crime than they
had before The Governor says: Two thirds
of the convicts in our State prisons are under
thirty years of age; we may add, a
large number are under twenty-one. Most
! criminals at that age are not confirmed
in crime, and many of them are still
| within reach of wise reformatory measures.
The Governor says: Nearly every day GU,
courts are sentencing to the penitentiary
young men under twenty-one years of age. il
many instances their first offense, and il
many cases the offense. technical one. anc
hundreds are sent to the penitentiarv by
courts and juries, thereby blasting theft char
acters forever, merely for the purpose of saw
| ing the county from the expense of jail sen
| tence, which would have been sufficient pun

On the 18th of March, when Senator Harri-

office of United States Senator that settles it

A little learning has been called "a danger
GUS thing" but it is sometimes useful. A
good many Democratic officials, including
Senator Green Smith and others, are evident
ly in the dark concerning the meaning of the
phrase ..pro tenn" There is even reason to
fear it has been a stumbling block to some
Democratic lawyers and judges, and as is gen
orally the case when word or phrase is not
understood, they seem to have invested it
with mysterious power. Democratic Sena-

THE only constitutional duty which have
been able to find devolved upon the Lieu

the Senate and of being in expectancy to
discharge the duties of Governor in case of
the death or resignation of the Governor
Now, when the Constitution also provides

mind, don't that fill the office, and can it be

Harrison.
A clause of the Constitution, referred to in
another article, devolves three other important
duties upon the Lieutenant governor besides
that of presiding over the Senate These
duties are all such as cannot be discharged by
Senator. Now, if Green Smith is so far

IT is true that in 1881 Judge Turpie was
one of several Commissioners to compile the
laws of the State into one volume. This COM
pilation was intended to embrace all the gen.
eral laws, and The Commissioners had nothing
to do in saying what laws should be omitted
or inserted. It was their duty to make the
compilation in as compact and as systematical-
ly arranged form as possible. and they would
have been guilty of violation Of their oa.hs
if they had left the intimidation laws out OF
the compilation. This is the only connection
that Judge Turpie had with the intimidation,
laws, and the people understand it.-Letter
in Courier-J Journal.
The correspondent Of the Courier Journal
can confer great favor on himself and Mr..
Turpie by showing where the intimidation
laws existed before they were reported by tho
Turpie commission. There never were any
such laws to compile; they never were 'com.
piled" They were originated by the Turpie
commission, and reported by the Turpie COM
mission. The intimidation laws have a
thoroughly Democratic origin.

THE DUTIES OF NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

THE DUTIES OF LIEUTENANT-GGVER
During Senator Harrison's argument in the
Supreme Court, while discussing the validity
of Colonel Robertson's election as Lieutenant-
governor, the following colloquy occurred be-
tween Judge Mitchell and the speaker
"Justice Mitchell-Is it not the fact that in
the absence Of the Acknowledgements the
duties are devolved upon the President of the
Senate?
. Senator Harrison-I would be ve.y glad if
your Honor would show me where that is said.
1t is said that the Senate may elect presi-
dent pro tempore who presides over the SEN
ate and of course discharges, so far as he pre-
sides, the same duty that the Leutenant-go
ernor would if he presided; but where is the
provision in the Constitution or the law that
invests him with any other function of the
Office Of Lieutenant governor
Justice MITCHELL might answer that
there is no provision in the Constitution or
law which invests the Lieutenant governor
with any other function. That is the whole
statement of the function of the Lieutenant
governor.
Senator Harrison-Does not the Constitu-
ton especially provide or permit that other
duties may be devolved upon him by lawg
Justice MITCHELL am not aware that il
does"
In this passage Judge Mitchell distinctly

volve upon him any other duty whatever

A VERY remarkable letter was written by
Mr.. Jason B. Brown to the Seymour Demo-
crat, under date of Jan. II, just after the
decision by Judge Ayres, in the Circuit
Court. We copy it in full:
'In the Circuit Court of Marion county,
this morning. Judge Ayres sustained the
complaint Of Hon. Alonzo Green Smith, on
every point in his quo warranto proceedings,
deciding that the election for Lieutenant
governor, last November, was illegal and
unwarranted by the Constitution of the
State, and denying the claimant, Robertson,
the right to preside in the Senate or at the
joint convention. This virtually decides the
case, as the Supreme Court will not reverse
the decision of the Circuit Court
Jason B. BROWN"
What information had Jason B. Brown that
could possibly lead him TO the confident
assertion contained in the last SENTENCED
Judge Ayres confessed grave doubts of the
question himself in his decision vet Mr.

PUEI GAS TROY, N. Y.

The city of Troy N. T., has had singular
experience with the use of fuel gas. About
year ago company was established there
for manufacturing and distributing gas for
fuel. The gas was manufactured by the Lowe
process, from water, the product being non
odorous and non. luminous-excellent for
cooking and heating purposes, but useless for
illuminating. The Troy company put in
valuable plant, distributing pipes, etc, and
soon built up good business 1t furnished
gas at so cents thousand feet. That price
can be reduced, it is claimed, so as to make
the cost Of gas fuel for all purposes less than
the cost of coal. The whole cost of manufact-
uring it is covered by the cost of the coal
used, wages for superintendent, interest on
plant and cost of repairs No substance other
than water is used. With the most improved
apparatus the estimate is 100 pounds of coal
for 5. 500 feet of gas, or about 100000 feet toa
ton of coal AT the Troy works from 60, 900
The cost of manufacture at these works was
about 8 cents a thousand feet For
heating purposes the gas was burned
in the ordinary coal CRATES by filing the latter
with broken fire bricks, which, becoming red
hot, radiated the heat, or in handsomely de-
signed apparatus that could be moved about.
There was nei Their smoke Tor smell. The
odorless quality, connected with the fact that
it has been discovered to be very dangerous
to breathe, has led to its being discarded, OF
| least for the present During the last year
| several cases occurred where persons were
| more or less injured by inhaling the gas, but
| its fatal character was not fully appreciated
in one building were killed by breathing it
and several others narrowly escaped death.
| This was in a house where it was not used, but
to which the gas found access from a leak
in a main pipe. This shocking accident i'm
mediately fixed public attention on the danger
involved, and resulted in the closing of the
works. The City Council and board of health
met to take action in the premises, but the
superintendent Of the works anticipated their
action and ordered the fires put out and the
works closed at once. The odorless quality OF
the gas makes it more dangerous, as house
may become filed with it and all the inmates
become unconscious before they even detect
its presence. The city of Lynn, Mass, is
supplied with fuel gas made by the same pro
cess, and no accident has occurred from j,
there. AS to the superior quality Of the gas
for heating purposes and its remarkable cheap
ness there is no dispute, the only question
being one of safety. Persons in Troy wht
have been using it are 10th to give it up ant
it is proposed to bring the matter before the
General Assembly with view of legalzing it
use by regulations providing for its safe dis
tribution.

THE claim has been made that the State
Senate. like the United States Senate, is "a
continuing body" and therefore its presiding
officer holds indefinitely. Senator Harrison
exposed the fallacy of this claim by showing
that the United States Senate is continuing
body only by virtue Of an express rule of its
OWL The State Senate is no more a continu-
ing body than the House is. The fact that
half the Senators hold over does not affect the
ease One-half is not "a body"

OvR esteemed evening contemporary treats
its readers to an elaborate "don't know" article
on the State library. If it "don't know that
the project to put the library in the hands Of
she State Board of Education is personal
one; If it don't know" that the person to be
benefited suggested the measure to Governor
Porter two years ago; if it don't know that
a certain result of such a change will be the
appointment of male Librarian, we would
suggest that it send out few emissaries to
fnd out something; for all those who have
anything to do with the matter do know
these things. One of the greatest troubles
about this, as about many other important
measures, is that there are so many that
'don't know who insist on advancing their
ideas, and sticking to them like grim death in
spite of facts, figures and reason.

elsewhere, respectfully calls Judge Mitchelps
attention to Article 5, Section 81, of the Con-
stitution, as follows:
s4The acknowledgement shall, by virtue
of his Office be President of the Senate; have
a right, when in committee of the WHOLE to
Join in debate and to vote on all subjects; and,
whenever the Senate shall be equally divided,
he shall give the casting vote"
The learned Judge must have overlooked
this section. The rights and duties which it
confers on the Acknowledgements to join in
debate and vote on all subjects when in COM
mittee of the whole, and to give the casting
vote on any and all questions when the Sen
ate is equally divided, are very important 1t
might happen in an evenly balanced Senate,
that the Lieutenant-governor would have to
give the casting vote on many important
measures thus exercising power scarcely
second to the veto power of the Governor.
